It was an afternoon of un expected reverses and both teams suT- ierea. xet there were some excellent performances and the pole vault rec ord of the dual games -went-un tr 12 feet CIS inches, which Captain Nel- 01 xaie, accomplished in such easy style that he attempted a 'world's record, but without success. The 120 yard high hurdle record for the dual meet of 15 4-5 -seconds was equalled by G. A. Chisholm, of Yale. Yale captured seven for first posi tions to six for Harvard, but when ?t came to place points the Crimson had the stronger team. PENNSYLVANIA WINS.

Anyone that nursed an idea the lo cals would have' another 'walkover yesterday,' after the Eastern Carolina professionals had lost some of their Winter stiffness and rounded mora .'into. form, must have been as optimis ; tic as the peg-legged man in the rough- house, who had no kick coming, for i when those same Sailors expectorated on their digits, histed tneir knicker bockers and went after the ball in the fifth session, the former had -no more' chance of winning a secdud vic tory than a jtfbro warrior has of recit- lInS tne laimud backwards or famiiiar- icrowd.that; visited the park with the expectation- of seeing good basebai. were, not disappointed.

White made a classv spear of Broth ers' foul fly after a long run to the neighborhood of the score-board artd Holler repeated the catch in the. fol lowing inning. The real feature of the game, however, was a courtin couple in the grandstand, who seemed utterly oblivious of baseball, blind ti ger investigations, the high, cost of living, the inroads of the hookworm, the probability of the comet striking the earth and other important Ques tions, but only interested- in their own exchange of confidences. Taking- an unbiased view of the situation the Sailors played good ball. and except for a noticeable lack of sticking,, gave a satisfactory perform ance.
